Show me your true colours In their blinding brightness Show me your true colours Like they glow in the night When you are dreaming Forget about the others The unbearable lightness Of our being Even spy satellites Won't see this coming Our love That's hiding in the dark Reach out I promise you Then we'll be lovers 'Cause it's our true colour Show me your true colours And we'll light up the darkness Show me your true colours I'll embrace all the Monsters in your closet Even spy satellites Won't see this coming Our love That's hiding in the dark Reach out I promise you Then we'll be lovers 'Cause it's our true colour

I hold my hand over the flame To see if I can feel some pain Look at what you've gone and done Baby, baby, now I'm numb I'm losing weight, bub I'm looking great, bub So what, I go out every night, sometimes I take drugs They're like my makeup This fucking breakup You see I gave you all my heart and now I hate love That's right, I hate love It only baits us And if you wanna know how I feel, well here's a taste of I hold my hand over the flame To see if I can feel some pain Look at what you've gone and done Baby, baby, now I'm numb I hold my hand over the flame To see if I can feel some pain Look at what you've gone and done Baby, baby, baby, baby now I'm numb

And I'm coming home London in the rain Driving real slow in the fast lane Feeling kinda stressed Trying to get drunk Problem with the rich kids is that they're no fun Right now I'm flying So come and take a shot at me Not scared of dying It's sad how sad this life can be Driving through the clouds Picking all the bad ones out the crowd Had a bad month Had a bad year Had a bad time getting over my fears Right now I'm flying So come and take a shot at me Not scared of dying It's sad how I don't wanna talk about my problems I don't wanna tell another lie I don't wanna write another love song I don't wanna even fucking try Everybody hurts sometimes Everybody hurts sometimes Everybody hurts sometimes Everybody Right now I'm flying So come and take a shot at me Not scared of dying It's sad how sad this life can be

I keep waking at night in the freezing cold Staring at the shadows coming up the walls Giving me a feeling I can't define "Is there anyone there?" I say to the dark But all I get back is a beating heart Going out of rhythm and I realize Oh, something's changed Oh, something's changed It's just a silhouette, a flick in the blinds It's just a mind trick, I don't know why But it reminds me of someone that I used to know All that I can't forget, is every night right beside me I open my eyes and it reminds me I should have never let you go Look up there don't you see her face That familiar heart, that familiar shape Are giving me a feeling, I can't define Oh, something's changed Oh, something's changed It's just a silhouette, a flick in the blinds It's just a mind trick, I don't know why But it reminds me of someone that I used to know All that I can't forget, is every night right beside me I open my eyes and it reminds me I should have never let you go I wanna put my arms around you Tell everyone I found you But you're just a shadow in my mind You know you've got me so enchanted Why you gotta be cold-heart Dancing on your own in the cold streetlight It's just a silhouette, a flick in the blinds It's just a mind trick, I don't know why But it reminds me of someone that I used to know All that I can't forget, is every night right beside me I open my eyes and it reminds me I should have never let you go

I found these days the things you say are so frustrating Always asking where we're going Release the handle bars, the wheels will start to roll Who knows just what we'll find What happens to you? What happens to me? Who knows which way the wind will blow Baby, it's a mystery I don't know cause I can't see There's no point even talking about It's a mystery But I can say without a doubt I want you right now When you look at me, I see you comtemplating If I'm gonna break your heart I'm twenty-four, I'm pretty sure I'll want you when you're eighty But who wants to see that far? What happens to you? What happens to me? Who knows which way the wind will blow Baby, it's a mystery I don't know cause I can't see There's no point even talking about It's a mystery But I can say without a doubt I want you right now It don't matter how much you try to scheme and plan Too many things, my love, that are out of our hands What happens to you? What happens to me? Who knows which way the wind will blow Baby, it's a mystery I don't know cause I can't see There's no point even talking about It's a mystery But I can say without a doubt I want you right now I want you right now

I was 20 days clean yesterday I get a key ring if I make it through to May Can we talk? Is that okay? If you've got time, I know a place A rose garden in the North side of the park They shut the gates about an hour after dark We could walk there, we can laugh Ain't it funny how owners look like their dogs? Oh, I'll claw back my confidence You'll say, "Do you think we can be friends?" Oh, maybe we have reached the end Oh, maybe we have reached the end Do you remember when Taylor Hawkins died? Did you see his son playin' the drums live? It made me sad, did it make you cry? I thought of you, I don't know why Oh, give me back my oxygen You'll say, "Do you think we can be friends?" Oh, maybe we have reached the end Oh, maybe we have reached the end Yeah
